So the draft is over and done with and we don't have JSmith or Austin rivers. Starting July 1 there will be a whole lot of speculation about who will be wearing green next year. So I ask you, who do you want in green?

Give me top 5 players you want the celtics to sign (keep in unrestricted for ease)

Chris Kaman
Jason Terry
Rashard Lewis
Kris Humphries
Jeff Green
*CB Miami Heat*
Kyle Lowry, Dwayne Wade, 13th pick in even numbered rounds, 18th pick in odd numbered rounds.

Obviously I really hope we keep our guys.

Jeff Green
Kevin Garnett
Ray Allen
Brandon Bass
Mickael Pietrus

But I really hope we sign a big guy,

Chris Kaman
Spencer Hawes (unrestricted this year)

Then sign a decent backup for Rondo (long overdue)

Raymond Felton
Kirk Hinrich
Andre Miller

My (very) optimistic Celtics roster for 2012-13:

PG) Rondo, Hinrich
SG) Bradley, Allen, Pietrus
SF) Pierce, Green, Joseph
PF) KG, Bass, Sullinger, JJJ
C) Kaman, Stiemsma, Melo

I'm still hoping for Ray to come back. He's too close to Doc/KG/Pierce/Rondo to leave!

There's not enough cap space for them all but if it's a wish list....

Omer Asik
OJ Mayo
Jeff Green
Camby
Terry

Bass, Wilcox, and Steimer can find deals elsewhere....Pietrus would be welcome on a minimum deal

25 in cap room

After you


-resign KG for 2 yrs, 8 mil per
-resign green for 2 yrs 7 mil per

you have 10 mil left

Players for around 7 mil
1)Illyasova
2)Mayo
3)Humpheries

around 5 mil
1)Ray Allen
2) Camby


I probably go with Ray Allen and Camby. I know they are both old, but both bring some much needed skill(shooting,rebounding,rim protection) on 1 year deals . 1 year deal is key they still let us have 10 mil+ in cap room next year to go after a Josh Smith or Millsap.

PG: Rondo      / Bradley  /
SG: Bradley    / Ray      / Moore
SF: PP         / Green    / Pietrus ( vet min)
PF: Sullinger  / JJJ      / Green
 C: KG         / Camby    / Steamer             / Melo


Love the mixture of youth and vets in the starting lineup and bench .

Jeff Green is top free agent priority to back up Pierce.

I'm a fan of the idea of the OJ Mayo trade. The Celtics need a guard who can create their own shot and shoot the ball well off the bench or starting, and I think he fits

I agree with all of this.

Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen,  Jeff Green, Chris Wilxox, Mickael Pietrus, Keyon Dooling.
The last two are optional but this pretty much sums up what I want.  Frankly, getting more than one med-level free agent is about the most we can do anyway.  So might as well keep as many of our guys as possible.

  • Boston Celtics= Championships, nothing less.
1)Get a solid starting REBOUNDING/banger big if Bass is gone. ie: Humphries...basically try and upgrade the Bass situation as best we can. I dunno about Ilyasova because he'd want long term security and big $$$. In a perfect world I'd like similar scoring but a little dirtier around the rim than Bass. Oh I'd also like someone that shows up for the playoffs!

2)Take a splash on Mayo. I wouldn't pay 7 million but a one or two year deal at 5 million perhaps instead of Ray?
Get him out there running with Avery and Rondo and see what happens.

3)Resign Jeff Green and get him galloping with Rondo + Bradley.

"We are lucky we have a very patient GM that isn't willing to settle for being good and coming close. He wants to win a championship and we have the potential to get there still with our roster and assets."

quoting 'Greg B' on RealGM after 2017 trade deadline.
Read that last line again. One more time.

I wouldn't mind getting Ray KG Green Pietrus and Wilcox back. As far as Bass goes please do something like getting Smith from Atlanta. Don't really want Mayo. I feel anything he can do Ray can still do. I would like our roster to look like this.

Rondo/Dooling/Moore
Bradley/Ray/Pietrus
Pierce/Green/Pietrus
Smith/Sully/Green
KG/Wilcox/Melo

Yeah KG back at center but can give time to Wilcox and Melo.
